Wind damage to vines. Near hurricane strength winds. This damage can be reduced by tying down vines with rope across top and/or weaving vines through the trellis wire on top as it grows, anchoring it to the trellis. Then use an overhead sprinkler during sub-45-degree weather.
Wind damage to vines. This could have been avoided by tying down vines to trellis. Trauma to vines will damage them.
